The uses of digital signage in education

The use of digital signage in the education area offers endless possibilities. Especially now, when the schools have returned to their activity in a totally exceptional situation. In this article, we are going to see some of the uses that you can give to your digital screens in this area.

Of course, placing a device in the lobby of a school or university is always a good option. You can project reminders with security measures and even welcome messages at the beginning of the school year or after the Christmas holidays. But let’s go further!

Digital signage in education as an informative element

A good option, in schools and universities, is to show the main news of the day. For example, you can choose the most important headlines to keep students up-to-date with the events, so they can get more information later.

With students of a certain age, who already behave responsibly, it is also an option to use some screens as a social networking site. If you want to take it a step further, students could send their tweets using a certain hashtag. This would be a good way to promote discussion and interaction among them, especially now that it is preferable to avoid certain face-to-face activities. 

Digital screens for more interactive classes

You can also replace classic projectors with digital signage screens. They are brighter, offer better visibility and, above all, give you multiple possibilities for interaction.

For example? Some screens are touch screens, so teachers could interact with the content while they are teaching. In addition, sending new content to other devices, such as the students’ tablets or laptops, is easy and immediate, so they can be adapted to any circumstance.

As you can see, education is changing. It is heading towards increasingly interactive dynamics and, now that on-site attendance is being reduced, towards a growing digitalization.
